If you look at Sanguinary's comment in the context of the ritual, there should be no confusion. He was simply anthropomorphizing the release of emotions that was necessary for him to begin moving forward.

Who the fuck asked for your opinion, smartass? And did I mention God at all? Great, if someone has beliefs different than yours, that doesnt give you the responsibility to show your mental limitations. I DO believe in the transmigration of the soul AND I am an atheist, but I also believe that animals have souls, and I was wanting to share something I thought was a beautiful experience with someone grieving over his recently lost pet. Next time, you're welcome to disagree with me, but don't do it on someone else's topic forum, and dont try to belittle what someone else says or believes, you just wind up looking like a jerk. (rolls eyes) ..how profound.

First of all - I didn't mean it to sound like an attack on someones beliefs. I still do not see any aggression in my post. Nevertheless, at least in my opinion - this isn't quite the place for someone with beliefs.

Ivan didn't mention that kind of ''God'' in this post, so why did you?!

The "coming back" of the individuality of a creature in an other body implies the idea that there exists something beyond the body that is able to come back. This something is often called a soul, which is a part of the worldview with God, Heaven and Hell or reincarnation, which await this soul after death. This is an idealistic doctrine and nothing changed since the last time I checked Satanism was materialistic.

If I am fully incorrect and Ivan the Cat did not speak of "the soul" and his view of the return of creatures is materialistic, than he apparently meant a zombie.

My post indeed says something about me. Perhaps you didn't listen to what it says.
